A director level leadership opportunity with AECOM's established team of 35 Transmission & Distribution engineers and designers based in Wellington I Te Whanganui-a-Tara. In this role, you will have plenty of scope and autonomy to make a difference by providing leadership, guidance and direction to the team. You will also have scope to continue to apply your technical, verification, design, project delivery or client relationship management capabilities with scope to shape this role to align with your background and expertise.
You will be leading a broad team of electrical engineers, designers and delivery managers from those who have newly joined AECOM as graduates, through to very experienced technical professionals well known in the industry. You will be part of AECOM's Transmission & Distribution (T&D) business line including the NZ T&D leadership team, working collaboratively with your peers and other leaders in Australia, and globally as required. Being part of AECOM's T&D business line enables you and the team to bring together Global Expertise, with Local Experience building on a reputation of technical and project excellence.
Our manager roles are broad, challenging and varied with oversight across the team's future work pipeline, client relationships, people development (including retention and recruitment), delivery KPIs, and commercial outcomes. Balancing competing priorities across client, project, team and commercial considerations is a key part of this role.
As Manager, you will play a critical role in shaping and strengthening team culture across a group of experienced specialists, with a focus on purpose, capability, excellence, collaboration, diversity, and teamwork to deliver innovative, client-focused outcomes.
Developing, mentoring, and attracting great talent is a core focus, alongside ensuring accountability and achieving strong commercial and financial performance.
